Can i use xylomet nasal drops during pregnancy?

Question

My nose is fully blocked since 2 din and i cant sleep properly yaar. I had xylomet drops at home from before but scared to use anything in pregnancy. Will ask my gynac also but wanted to know if anyone used these.

I know how frustrating it is when you cant breathe properly, especially with nausea. But please ask your gynac before using these drops, and try taking steam twice a day for natural relief.

Nita Iyengar · Answer

Please dont use any nasal drops without asking your gynac first. For now, you can try hot water steam, it is much safer and gives relief.

I had a blocked nose too and was so tempted to use my old drops, but I got scared. Did anyone elses doctor allow these or is it safer to just use saline drops?

Heena Raman · Answer

Yes, better to avoid xylomet drops and check with your doctor. Try simple saline nasal drops instead, they are usually safer.

Ah, the lovely pregnancy congestion! Dont just spray anything up your nose right now, please call your doctor first. I survived purely on steam inhalations and Vicks.
